Abstract excerpt
AIMS: microRNAs (miRNA) play a key role in the pathogenesis of breast cancer (BC) as regulators of tumor-associated genes, and understanding their polymorphisms is critical to the control of breast carcinogenesis. Thus, the present study explored the association between five common functional polymorphisms in miRNAs (i.e., miRNA-196a2C>T, rs11614913; miRNA-146aG>C, rs2910164; miRNA-423C>A, rs6505162;...
